First of all, I love this mod, it's really great. However I think there is one thing that needs a fixing. The planes.

Overall, the layout of the planes are very realistic, and I love the ****-pit and rear tag view. But the thing I don't really like is the fire power that comes from the machine guns and cannons. They are, as for as I know, completely useless in dogfighting. On top of that, you have server lag, which makes it even worse. Heck, you'd have a better chance at killing infantry with the machine guns by blindly firing into the enemy base than trying to dogfight with it.

And I'm also sure that many people will agree with me on this, and hopefully, this will change the minds of the developers in changing it.

Well i agree with you as well ali.The mgs are pea shooters and the cannons have virtually no splash damage.You can spend nearly 10 min dogfighting even if you got the jump on them and pumped them full of cannon rounds.ive had more success in dogfighting with the hurricane and the britsh bomber(forgot name) due to their slower speeds.

4 20mm cannons firing would take out a tank,especially this early in the war.

Thats all Ive been doing Ali G. I dont even try to dog fight I just do strafe runs on the enemy base. I tried taking out a few tanks with the canons but I still have managed to. Its very difficult getting into planes on some servers. The TKing is out of control.
